			<h1 >Search Engine Optimization for Web Sites</h1>
			
			<p>Search Engine Optimization has become the latest buzzword on the Internet. Google and Yahoo have revolutionized Internet search and have introduced business models which place importance on how high a Web site can rank. If your small business or organization can show up on the first page of a search, the greater the likelihood that potential customers will visit your site.
            </p>

            Search engine optimization is not a single process, but in fact requires a holistic approach to Web site development. It is made up of tasks which range from effective content writing, to keyword and other meta-tagging, accessibility, internal and external linking, site indexing, search engine submission and much more. It is difficult and time consuming and is not an exact science.
            </p>
            
            <p>What this means is that no company can EVER promise to give you a number 1 ranking in Google. Ever! The fact of the matter is that rankings depend on algorithms employed by Search Engine companies and are subject to change at any moment. Even some paid submission services cannot guarantee you top ranking. Some companies also claim to submit your site to thousands of search engines. This is ridiculous and not necessary and is no better than submitting your site to a few carefully planned and targeted sites for indexing.  
            </p>
